Buying the 2002 Lexus LS
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2002 Lexus LS for sale by us right now. This page puts the 2002 Lexus LS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 37 complaints with NHTSA, most often about structure, latches/locks/linkages and vehicle speed control; have those parts checked. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
Under the hood
Power: the 4.3L 8-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Combined fuel use is 12.4 L/100 km: about 37 litres for 300 km. That works out to about $21.70 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,350 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who it is for
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 396 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Rent first, buy later: a week with the LS answers the big questions. Drive the LS on your commute before you commit to it. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Year and trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Money matters
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel.
